Hackathon : A Marathon for the Brain
• An annual hackfest conducted by Neevites, Neev Hackathon kicked off on 29th June,2013
• It showcases Applications written using frameworks on platforms of the coder’s choice
• Teams participating from Bangalore, Pune and Delhi
• A 48-hour code-a-thon where 60 Neevites in 12 teams hacked through the ideas of their
choice ranging from Augmented Reality to Project Management and Gaming to UI
enhancements using 6 different frameworks
• 6 teams were eventually awarded prizes(though all of them got movie tickets!). The
following slides describe one of the awarded projects

The Ideas that ‘Drove’ the Project
• A video demonstration of a car driven on grass using HTML5
• Demos where Augmented Reality and motion detection was
captured through a camera
• Implemented both in a car which detects motion and drives in the
direction of motion
Technologies and Frameworks used in the project
• Technologies
1. Javascript
2. HTML5
3. CSS3
• Framework / API
1. jQuery: JavaScript library designed to simplify the client-side
scripting of HTML
2. WebGL: Open Source JavaScript Library with support for
HTML5 graphics and animation
Highlights of the Application
• HTML5 and JavaScript-based
• Captured the camera feeds through JavaScript. Did not use any flash / server
side scripting
• Split the application into 2 phases.
1. The first phase was getting the camera to capture and detect the
motion.
2. The making of the car.
• App is also a very good stress buster!
The challenges we faced whilst developing the App
• Camera detection using JavaScript
• Handling the camera on a canvas(an HTML5 element which is used
to draw graphics on the fly, on a web page)
• Integrating the motions and driving the car
In the Near Future : The Market for this App
• We can make this App better by adding collision detection and
ability to handle change of terrain
• App can help companies in promotion of their cars. Think of a
panel station where everyone comes and drives the car using
motion detection.
• With simple modifications, this app can be made more rich in
features
